sing in public

Still working towards this…

God has recently spoken to me in a very strong way… that I should start singing again. He’s even given me a deadline. I started taking allergy shots 3 years ago for my voice because I’d started having trouble with it and was a voice major. Well… I’ve moved away from my singing since because of some emotional experiences I’ve struggled with. Recently I went to the allergy clinic for an update from the doctor on how things are going and he asked if my voice had improved any. I admitted that I haven’t been singing for a while so I’m not really sure how much it may have improved. He said that in January I must report back to him to see if my voice has improved… which means I must start singing again. I could feel God’s hands all over it. Now I’ve got to start practicing again and get going on this! I’m ready to start singing again… I’ll feel more like my real self again. :)

I’d like to eventually sing in weddings and other events, on the side, to earn extra money.

When I get up the courage, I’m going to volunteer to sing at this church I’ve been going to for the last month and a half or so. I have to, for my own good. I’ve got a good voice that shouldn’t go to waste. I feel God gave it to me for a reason, and I have to use God’s gift. I hope I don’t take forever before I muster up the guts to just go through with it. I don’t know what’s stopping me really, it’s not embarrassment… I have a pretty good voice, but I will feel such a release when I finally let my voice out in front of a crowd again…. Wish me luck!
